To add to this, my main problem is with globalist libertarians because they ignore the fact that the only reason international trade is viable is because of the USA's interference in all this shit which is funded by US taxpayers, our resources, claims on our assets, and our very blood.
People ignore how recent this shift was too, at least relatively. Pre-China and Pre-Soviet Collapse, the market, consumers and labour pool were in effect confined to NATO and its friends/quasi-vassals. This left corporations with little to no choice but to abide by its rules. They were even forced to abide by Soviets influencing the market, like the time they started hoarding sugar (largest producers of it at the time, surprisingly), driving up its price and forcing Coke to shift to high fructose corn syrup to save money, arguably the worst crime the Soviets ever committed.
This map's also a good representation to the extent of where businesses and corporations were in operation and the exact point when they were freed of the limited workers and consumers in the West...
It's where McDonalds opened restaurants.
The rest of the world opening up with not nearly as many regulatory restrictions in place compared to those in NATO had manufacturers flee abroad to where they didn't confine them quite as much, taking with them the value they accrued from their former hosts and shifted it elsewhere to save on overheads (China).
The corporate world, in effect, acts as a parallel state: it has its own interests to look out for, and it's naïve to expect them and yours to completely aligned.
Maybe when a company's shareholders came entirely from the same country as it was founded, and slightly less once they could all come from the West, but once you opened ownership to those outside the West/Nato/Friends that implicit shared interest between shareholders (Western) atomised and it got shit. Ford might've made vocal overtures to the Nazis, but he still got those Shermans built.
